In the just-concluded 21st round of the Premier League, Arsenal played manchester City, and the two teams met very well. In the first half, Jesus and Ruben Díaz made two headers, but Arsenal took the lead to break the deadlock, and Saka met the ball in the penalty area and pushed the ball into the goal. In the second half, the B seat was dragged down by Xhaka to make a point, Mahrez scored on the penalty, and then in the next 2 minutes, the Akke goal line was released, Martinelli flew away, followed by Gabriel's red color, and ten-man Arsenal played against Manchester City. In injury time, Rodri staged a killer scene, played Mr. Key, and defeated the Gunners Arsenal 2-1 to win 11 consecutive league games, and the championship momentum was revealed.
Manchester City's recent form has been very hot, in the last 10 long matches to achieve a record of full victory, 31 goals, only 6 goals lost, many games to clean the opponent or to win with a large score, including many 7-0 big wins Z United, 4-0 clean sheets Newcastle United and 6-3 victories over the Blue Fox Leicester City such a blood-boiling victory, the team once opened the gap with the Blues Chelsea and reds Liverpool, a unique top of the table, the terror of the defending champions can be seen. High-density, high-quality matches have brought a lot of hidden dangers to Manchester City, in the last game against the league's new team Brentford Manchester City showed fatigue, this game Manchester City although able to beat Arsenal to win, but also has a lot of luck.
Although Manchester City won a wave of consecutive wins, their performance in this game had to admit that it was very average, the team had few shots on goal in the first half of the game, on the contrary, Arsenal were more motivated and created more opportunities, making Manchester City very passive. In the second half, City equalised on penalties and Mahrez scored. Not to be outdone, Arsenal continued to maintain a strong attack, but then Gabriel was sent off with two yellows and one red, and Arsenal's ten men played manchester City.
After fighting with one less man, Arsenal did not turn from attack to defense, but still maintained the rhythm of attack and confronted Manchester City. And in this kind of confrontation, and Manchester City to play more and less, Manchester City can not attack for a long time, which shows how bad their performance in this game is. The main connection between Manchester City in this game is the cooperation of defenders Canceló and Mahrez, Canceló is very positive, many times took the initiative to create opportunities for Mahrez, he is one of the few manchester City players in this game to perform well, this game he also got the second highest rating in the game.
The two teams were full of gunpowder in this game, and Xhaka, Saka, Sivar and Rodri all received yellow cards. But it was Manchester City that laughed at the end of the game, and although the overall performance of the team was not good, they still held the three points firmly in their hands. After winning this game, Manchester City has won 11 consecutive league games, and currently has a record of 17 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, 53 points to the top of the league table, the point advantage is very obvious, and the defending league champion has an unstoppable momentum.
For Arsenal, this game also made them suffer. In the case of one less person to fight, they also have to oppose Manchester City, do not play cards according to the routine, the team's ingenuity allows at least one point to score at least one point in the game and finally lose all three points, which is very regrettable. And from their historical record of meetings with Manchester City, the Gunners Arsenal can be said to be the inferior, the team has not tasted a win against Manchester City in the past 5 seasons, in the first leg of the season, Arsenal lost 0-5, and if they lose again in this game, Arsenal will suffer ten consecutive defeats against Manchester City, which is what they do not want to see, and this may be one of the main reasons why they are desperate to bet and let go in this game.
Although Arsenal ultimately failed to change the outcome, they played bloody in this game, and they played the momentum that the Gunners should have, which may be why we like them! Hopefully, Arsenal will continue to work hard and bring us more exciting games!
